Dance Nutrition 101 – Your Body Needs Carbohydrates

Carbohydrate will help keep you focused so you can work on refining the details in technique; give you stamina during lessons/rehearsals/shows; and help your body metabolise and utilise protein and other important nutrients to build a strong and resilient body.

Bread, pasta, rice and potatoes – they are all dancer-friendly energy foods!

Try to include at least one of them for every meal to keep your body well.
